"Through thick and thin, we'll stick together"
the 'russies' | siren sisters~
The Russus family is made up of four sisters: Derica, Kalliope, Aithne and Aurelia. Born to pureblood Sirens, Cicerio and Accalia Russus, they were to become extremely powerful. The family lived off the coast of Cornwall. Spending more time in the ocean than their home by the beach.
They were a close-knit family with Cicerio and Accalia doting on their daughters. The three younger siblings had a very tight bond. They shared every childish secret. Derica became a person to look up to. A person to go to when they had a problem and their mother just couldn't be told. Because of this, the sisters became to rely on one another.
It was in late 2003 when everything changed for the sisters. They returned to their home to see two bodies. Drained dry of blood. Their parents lay lifeless as the scent of a vampire still lingered in the air. Derica, at seventeen, took it upon herself to care for her younger sisters at the ages seven, six and five.
They stayed at their family home for nine years. The bond between the sisters growing stronger every day. However, as the younger sisters started to mature tensions rose in the family. Kalliope went wild. Aithne too. Aurelia was the only sister to keep her innocence. When the wars ended, and Sirens were accepted at the academy, Derica moved her sisters to Northvale City. Hoping the school would help her younger sisters' aversion to the other races - especially vampires.
DERICA
27 .x. Local Resident .x. Deborah Ann Woll
Derica is the guardian of her younger siblings. She tries her best to control Kalliope and Aithne but even she is giving up. The only hope she has left is for Aurelia. Although she no longer is trying to control Kalliope and Aithne, it doesn't mean she doesn't protect her siblings with everything she has.
Although kind and caring to most, Derica is extremely racist whem it comes to vampires. She does not trust them and will constantly be on edge around them. If a vampire was to get too close to either her siblings or herself she would not hesitate to kill them. The Siren for years was hunting for revenge. Trying to avenge her parents death. She was tracking down the killer and Derica thought that she found her. She killed Delaney Verdoux thinking it was Athena Verdoux, the actual killer.
Derica does not know that she killed the wrong vampire and believes that she has managed to get her revenge. She also never told her younger siblings that she has killed the vampire that she thought killed their parents.
KALLIOPE
17 .x. Fourth Year Siren Student .x. Susan Coffey .x. Played by Spitze
Kalliope is a whore. Ever since she was fifteen she has been out of control. Sleeping with any guy she deems worthy and if they reject her? She will use her voice. She will never go for a vampire however due to her hatred toward the race for murdering her parents. In fact, she often tries to avoid vampires and if she must be in the same room as one then she will ignore them.
She loves attention, the main reason behind her wild personality. Kalliope is often fighting to be the centre of attention, especially around the opposite sex. She often gains the attention by flirting and sexual references. Most of the time, the girl doesn't even realise she is flirting; it runs so deep within her personality. Kalliope is often a bitch toward other females. She sees them as a threat and also competition. It is rare she will ever gain female friends, apart from her sisters that is. They are the only people of the opposite sex that she trusts.
After all in said and done, Kalliope has a fierce protection over her siblings. Though she clashes with Derica often she adores her two younger sisters - especially Aurelia. It is not rare to see her often with her youngest sister when she isn't out partying and trying to get guys. They have a strong bond and Kalliope will do everything for her.
AINTHE
16 .x. Third Year Siren Student .x. Nataliya Piro
Ainthe is a more toned-down version of Kalliope. She is wild and loves to party however, unlike her sister, she does not sleep around. Instead she loves to just go out and dance. Hardly ever spending time at home due to the parties she is attending.
Ainthe looks up to Derica. She sees her as a role-model of sorts however she also believes her eldest sister is not 'that much fun'. But, she admires how much Derica cares for them and everything she has done for them. When Derica and Kalliope fight, Ainthe will often take Derica's side although she is more like Kalliope in personality. She feels that she owes Derica for caring for them all and staying strong enough to do so when their parents died.
It is her mission to go out and get revenge for her parents death. Although she was only six when her parents died, it has effected her deeply. She was extremely close to her mother and the image of her lifeless body still very much haunts the girl. She has vowed to herself that she will not rest until she finds the killer of her parents and gets her revenge. Unknowing what Derica has done and unknowing also Derica's mistake.
AURELIA
15 .x. Second Year Siren Student .x. Molly Quinn .x. Played by Chloe
Aurelia is the baby of the sisters and if often seen as such. She is the most innocent of the group as she was only five when her parents died and the fact all of her sisters did their best to protect her innocence.
Aurelia and Kalliope have a firm bond. She loves her sister dearly and she makes it her mission to get Kalliope to believe in love and to also find it. She does not agree with her sister's lifestyle and wants to change it - however she does not judge her for it. Aurelia sees that her sisters have been broken ever since her parents death and it is her mission to fix them again.
Unlike her sisters, Aurelia is the only one who does not blame the vampires that killed her parents. Yes, she is upset of her parents death however she sees that the vampires were hungry and they killed. Though the youngest, she is the wisest. She understands that vampires kill and believes that they were just trying to satisfy their bloodlust. She does not hold a grudge against the vampire that killed her parents and is not racist toward the race in any way.
